The prosecutor also says that the videos [that was aired live that day, June 21st, by a state-owned television channel] and the photos, were all "made up"!
Even more, he says that the police did not act brutally, and that Simon Chapman was injured as he was trying to escape! While, in both the video and the photos, we can see the riot police beat Chapman who has blood all over his face...
Even worst, that means that things will be very difficult for all 7 people arrested in Thessaloniki. Simon's case was pretty clear and now a blind judge refuses to see the clear truth. We can imagine what is next!

Lets start thinking about what to do next

There was a really good support group in London, perhaps if they could post up any ideas/plans they have for what to do, and those of us who were active (or not) in other parts of the country could try and tie our plans in with that it'd be a good starting point. Or if anyone else (the Leeds group seemed very organised - for example) has any ideas let's start sharing them now and not wait till the last minute.

Let us see them imprisoned. There can be no Justice in Greece otherwise.
With the Olympics coming up you would think the Greeks would be very anxious to prove their integrity. Corrupt Policemen, corrupt Cameramen, and corrupt Judges should all face long terms in prison, loss of pension, and social ostracism. Which are Guilty?
